Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a general-purpose fluid-tight gasket intended to produce a fluid-tight seal in the coupling of pipes it is desired to connect.
  • the present invention is characterized in the special configuration and design of the fluid-tight gasket, which allows a fluid-tight coupling, of pipes to be obtained, in which the diameters of the pipes to be connected can vary over a wide range without needing to use a fluid-tight gasket of different diameters.
  • the present invention lies within the ambit of the means to achieve a fluid-tight connection between different lengths of pipes, and particularly among the gaskets which allow a wide range of pipes with different diameters to be used.
  • the fluid-tight gaskets used in the connection of different lengths of pipes that do not necessarily have the same diameter are based on some of the situations in the employment of two bodies of complementary and deformable geometry.
  • the deformation of the bodies which constitute the gasket is what allows the desired tolerance to be obtained for its application with different diameters of pipes.
  • One of the bodies has a supporting surface which is essentially perpendicular to its axis against which surface a pressing force is applied to achieve the deformation of the gasket and thereby guarantee the fluid-tightness.
  • This same body has another surface intended to rest on a projection of a pressing body, to prevent the egress of the gasket.
  • This fluid-tight gasket has the drawback of requiring the use of two independent bodies of complementary geometry.
  • a gasket is used formed by a single piece which is generally triangular in section, in the form of a scalene triangle.
  • the gasket To be able to achieve its use over a wide range of diameters, it is necessary for the gasket to employ a great quantity of material, which allows sufficient deformation to be obtained to take up the tolerance sought in the different diameters.
  • this type of gaskets is subjected to a different deformation, which given the geometry thereof implies a different tightening torque. That is, depending on the diameter of the pipe to be connected, the tightening torque is different, becoming greater as the diameter of the pipe to connect is diminished, since the deformation of the gasket must be greater to take up the tolerance sought.
  • the objective of the present invention is to overcome the aforesaid drawbacks, seeking on one hand, a fluid-tight gasket which besides serving for a wide range of different diameters of pipes, is formed by a single piece. Whilst on the other hand, it is sought that the quantity of material employed is reduced substantially, and wherein the tightening torque of the screws in a union is the same, independently of the diameter of the pipe to be connected.
  • the general-purpose fluid-tight gasket of the invention is formed by a single piece of annular configuration which is trapezoidal in section.
  • the radial section of the fluid-tight gasket is trapezoidal in form, wherein the base of the section has some means for gripping or securing which can be implemented based on a series of semicircular projections, having also on the base a recess of approximately triangular section, which becomes narrower toward the interior of the gasket.
  • One of the faces of the section has an inclined face from which emerge some means of gripping or securing which can be implemented based on some semicircular projections.
  • the quantity of material necessary for the manufacture of the fluid-tight gasket is clearly reduced through having a recess in its base. Also, the smaller part of the section of the gasket which is proximate to the recess allows a greater deformation of the same for a smaller tightening torque.
  • the different forms that are adopted by the fluid-tight gasket object of the invention will depend on the diameters of the pipes to be connected, the deformation of the gasket being greater as the diameter diminishes of the pipe it is desired to connect. That is, the deformation of the gasket has to fill the gap existing between the pipe and the body of the union.
  • a gasket is obtained in a single piece, which achieves a fluid-tight union applicable to a wide range of pipe diameters.
  • the gasket would absorb the different diameters of the pipes, it is also sought that the quantity of material necessary for its fabrication is clearly reduced, and wherein the tightening torque applied for the different diameters of pipes is the same.
  • the fluid-tight gasket (1) has a general annular configuration the cross-section of which is trapezoidal in form, having a lower base (2) from which emerge some projections of semicircular section (3).
  • a recess (4) is implemented of triangular general configuration which narrows toward the interior of the recess.
  • the trapezoidal section of the fluid-tight gasket (1) has an inclined plane (5) on one of its sides, from which some semicircular projections (6) emerge.
  • the fluid-tight connection between two pipes (10) and (11) is carried out by means of two tightening flanges (7) mounted on the ends of a union body (9) .
  • the union body (9) has its ends open with the object of better achieving the securing of the fluid-tight gaskets (1).
  • the connection of the whole assembly is carried out by means of some tightening screws (8) arranged between the tightening flanges (7), so that depending on the degree to which the screw (8) is tightened, a different deformation of the fluid-tight gasket (1) is achieved, all of this with the same tightening torque which is around 35 to 40 Nm.
  • the gasket (1) hardly suffers any deformation.
  • the recess (4) is reduced in size, whilst in the following figures the gap of the recess has practically disappeared, the gasket coming to rest on a part of the lower base.
  • the gasket is deformed rising up over the base, coming to rest completely thereon.
